Thanks - the risk seems pretty low from a compat POV.

LGTM1

We don't have metrics measuring the usage of this key directly, but we have checked with a number of known partners from the origin trial to see if this was being used. Breakage in this situation, similar to below, would not be user-visible or immediately web-visible. Ultimately, this will cause reports to be matched/generated differently than before, so a developer may see a different set of reports for the same set of events, or no reports at all.

Currently, negatives are clamped to the minimum of 1 day, and don't hold any special value. They would only be used if someone had observed they were clamped to the minimum, and decided to rely on that behavior rather than setting the minimum themself (or even 0). Similar to above, we are not aware of any usage but do not have targeted metrics for this.

    Summary

    We plan on landing a number of changes to the Attribution
    Reporting API focused on:

     *

        registration ergonomics allowing better flexibility when
        controlling whether attribution should occur based on the
        time between the two events

     *

        support for developer controlled configurations that allow
        for callers to specify the windowing scheme and number of
        reports to receive for an event, in order to more efficiently
        extract utility out of the privacy mechanism


    Spec changes

    1.

        Allow expiry, event_report_window, aggregatable_report_window
        fields to be integers
        <https://github.com/WICG/attribution-reporting-api/pull/895>

    2.

        Lookback window in filters
        <https://github.com/WICG/attribution-reporting-api/pull/914>

    3.

        Developer defined configurations for reporting windows and
        maximum # of reports
        <https://github.com/WICG/attribution-reporting-api/pull/856>

     *

        Separate verbose debug report for start time
        <https://github.com/WICG/attribution-reporting-api/pull/916>

    4.

        Reduce min event report window time from 1 day to 1 hour and
        prohibit negative durations
        <https://github.com/WICG/attribution-reporting-api/pull/876>


    Risks

    Interoperability and Compatibility

                  Changes (1) (3) are all fully backwards compatible.
    (2) (3) are optional, additive changes to the API surface which
    allow for additional information to be provided by developers at
    registration time.


                 (2) is largely backwards compatible except in the
    case a developer was previously using a key with the name
    "_lookback_window", where they will now see different behavior
    when matching. We expect the API breakage to be negligible.

    Is this based on metrics you have in front of you, or something
    else? Also, what might breakage look like in this situation?


                 (4) has some marginal backwards incompatibility.
    “prohibit negative durations” will result in any previous
    registrations now resulting in a failure rather than being
    clamped to a minimum value. In the event a registration fails,
    there will be no user-visible / web-visible breakage outside of
    different reports being emitted than before. That being said, we
    also expect API breakage here to be negligible.

    Why would a negative duration be used today? It sounds weird, but
    I've also seen "max-age=-1" w/ cookies to mean "like, now-now".
    Are we aware of any usage of negative durations?

    Will this feature be supported on all six Blink platforms
    (Windows, Mac, Linux, Chrome OS, Android, and Android WebView)?

    All except Android WebView


    Is this feature fully tested by web-platform-tests
    
<https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/main/docs/testing/web_platform_tests.md>?


    Yes
